and their consequences that the american people are facing this fiscal cliff it is going to happen on january 1st and 2nd, and it is happening because they have not done their job. the president should be speaking to harry reid in the senate saying come on now, get busy on this. take up one of those budgets. take up the tax extenders. this is what i am looking for, this is what we are going to work with you on. you know what, that's not what he did. >> in the negotiations leading up to the super committee back in 2011, speaker boehner spoke frankly about the president's negotiating habits. he said he was not a good negotiator. bob woodward in his book pretty much described the same thing that the president was out of touch. and then we speak a statement like the president just made before he departed on his vacation. is he refusing to lead? perhaps he wants to go over the fiscal cliff. >> well, you know, and that is a very interesting point. i think maybe he does want to go over the fiscal cliff. that's how he gets what he wants. higher tax rates on everybody and extra cuts on defense

boehner he has not scheduled a debate about on the fiscal cliff which is just absurd. if there is one message to go out there it's that the house has actually done its job and the senate could fix this today if they wanted to. patti ann: you are in north carolina which says a lot. the house right now, no plans to convene unless there is a deal to vote on. both sides obviously saying the ball is in the other court. what is going to happen here? >> i think we're going over the cliff. i've been saying for months i thought we were going over the cliff because, frankly, i believe it's what the president wants. if you go back and look at how he's handled this negotiation from the very beginning, go back and look at what his own administration has been telling him for years, and that is that tax rates need to go up on everybody. this has pw-pb been the president's position i believe from the very beginning. i think that's where we w up. what happens after that i think depends in large part on who gets blamed. we are going over the cliff for a brief period ever time. patti ann

let's go behind the scenes of the talks to avoid the fiscal cliff. it seems the framework for a deal actually might be taking shape. if so, what will it look like? david drucker has been nosing around a little bit. the associate politics editor at "roll call." when you hear senators and speaker of the house come out and talk it doesn't sound like they're all that close, david. are you optimistic? >> well i'm sort of on the fence here, jon. whenever you hear members of congress talk about any kind of fiscal cliff deal you have to approach it with a sort of believe everything and believe nothing attitude. i think that everybody wants to avoid having taxes go up for all americans as of january 1st but everybody has a price for that. and it, to me, it's about whether or not both sides are looking for a win-win deal, meaning, my opponent wins and i win. or whether both sides or one of the sides are looking for a deal where only i win and you lose and on top of all of that then we have to look at what do they want to include in any sort of deal? are we goi
